Sprinklers as the next step to fire safety

  • Reference: 2021/1179
  • Question by: Navin Shah
  • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
I acknowledge the new London Plan and the Fire Commissioner/Fire Brigade’s measures to enhance fire safety through the requirement of sprinklers for residential buildings. However, the scope for this is very limited and nowhere near adequate. The evidence-based research shows sprinklers save lives. What is the strategy for promoting sprinklers in new residential buildings and retrofitting tall buildings to safeguard residential and ‘other’ buildings such as care homes and schools etc.?

You are the first London Mayor to include in your London Plan strong policies on play and informal recreation with space standards of 10 square meters per child and young person. However, given that the new census is happening this weekend, will you be updating the calculator used to assess the number of under 18s in a development to ensure your policies and standards are met and accurately implemented.
